The huge success of the TV series Golden Boy
According to the famous journalist Sina Kologlu, the TV series “Golden Boy” could repeat the tremendous success of the series “What is Fatmagul’s Fault?” on international markets. The demand for the producer Onur Guvenatam’s show is enormous.
For example, since the general ban on Turkish TV series was introduced in 2018, “Golden Boy” became the first Turkish TV series shown on free-to-air TV in the Middle East and North Africa region. It became the first successful Turkish TV series in Northern European countries, which had previously been skeptical of them. It became the first Turkish TV series shown in Finland (on the MTV Oy/C More channel) and the first of its genre to be licensed by a commercial broadcaster in Sweden (on the TV4 channel).
As the journalist claims, he has learned that the rights to show the series have been sold in more than 100 countries. Recently, the broadcasting rights were sold to TV channels Albania TV Klan, Hungary TV 2, Lithuania LNK, Uzbekistan Sevimli TV, South Africa, and Namibia eTV. It was also reported that there was tremendous interest in this series at MIPCOM, one of the most important TV series industry exhibitions held in Cannes.
